Change Is A Coming! A Look At The New Rules In The NFL

Over the past few years, the NFL has become known as the ‘No Fun League.’ Well, today we get A Look At The New Rules In The NFL, which certainly adds to that allure. Each year about this time the NFL and its 32 owners meet in the off-season voting on proposed rule changes and more. Yesterday we got word of the approved move of the Oakland Raiders to Las Vegas, and today we get a look at some of the new rules set to come into play next season.

One big one was banning players from leaping over the line of scrimmage to block field goals or extra points. Owners and players fear a player could be injured on the play, though no injuries on such a play have happened. Additional rule changes included centralized replays where officials at the league office in New York have final say, ejecting players after they commit two of a certain type of unsportsmanlike conduct penalties and a handful of others. Interesting day in the NFL for sure. Speak your thoughts on the new rules in the comments below and speak your thoughts on it after the jump. Stay tuned for much more from NFL coming very soon!
